BUT THE PROBLEM IS THEY DO NOT LET PUBLIC COME IN WITHOUT BEING SCANNED, GOING THROUGH METAL DETECTORS, ET CETERA.
AND WE CAN'T HAVE THAT DONE TO THE VOTING PUBLIC.
UNFORTUNATELY, DUE TO STATE LAW, THEY'RE ALLOWED TO FIND, THEY CAN FIND THAT COFFEE, HOUSING STUFF.
THEY'RE NOT GOING TO BE SCANNED ARE THEY? CURRENTLY NO, BECAUSE WE'RE IN A RETAIL SPACE THAT HAS AN ENTRANCE DIRECTLY INTO THE SPACE AND THE DOOR INTO THE FACILITY ITSELF IS ACTUALLY LOCKED.

IF WE CAN KEEP THAT RETAIL SPACE, THAT'D BE NICE.
